The Reality Behind Cloud Technology
Understanding the intricacies of cloud computing allows developers to enhance user experience by making informed architectural decisions. It is emphasized that clouds are not magical; instead, they are complex systems built on previous foundational technologies, such as traditional server management. AWS and GCP, while offering powerful abstractions like Lambda, mask their underlying operations, making it crucial for developers to comprehend this complexity. By recognizing clouds as a series of manageable virtual machines rather than inscrutable black boxes, developers can create innovative applications that were not previously feasible.
